Scale without conformal invariance in membrane theory
We investigate the relation between dilatation and conformal symmetries in the statistical mechanics of flexible crystalline membranes. We analyze, in particular, a well-known model which describes the fluctuations of a continuum elastic medium embedded in a higher-dimensional space. In this theory,...
